'Daylight robbery' - Manchester United fans furious with Daniel James fantasy football decision

Manchester United had to settle for a draw against historic rivals Arsenal last night, as goals from Scott McTominay and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang meant the points were shared at Old Trafford.

Both Marcus Rashford and Paul Pogba returned to the starting lineup, after missing the midweek clash with Rochdale through injury, but their inclusion couldn't lead United to what could have been a really important win for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.

United's best performers on the day were the young players, with McTominay scoring an impressive goal from just outside the area to open the scoring and Daniel James proving to be a constant threat, always full of energy and was arguably United's most dangerous player.

However, when the Fantasy Premier League revealed who would be getting bonus points for their performance in the game between United and the Gunners, James got no mention whatsoever.

McTominay was mentioned, getting two bonus points for his goal and performance against Unai Emery's side, but many fantasy football fans were upset that James didn't get any bonus points at all, particularly after a strong performance.

And, they let their feelings be known on Twitter.

As you can see, these fans are clearly not happy with James missing out on a bonus point.

Do you think James should have got at least one bonus point for his performance against Arsenal?

He was certainly one of United's best players on Monday evening.
